Charlie Brown Christmas

Lexington Children's Theatre

Woodstock was build by patterning a flat pattern that was used to cut out a foam shell for the head and body of the puppet. Then a plastic boning skeleton was added inside the foam to give more support. A fleece skin was patterned and pulled over the foam; the loose fleece neck was anchored to the base of the body, attaching the head to the body, while still allowing full range of movement. Details like the fleece wings, cockscomb and feet were outlined with black piping to add the 2-diminticanal-cartoon effect of the original cartoon.
